The GT_EMBHATCH<\/strong> command in GeoTools<\/strong> creates a hatch pattern with alternating long and short lines<\/strong> to represent embankment slopes<\/strong>, ensuring accurate terrain visualization in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Define the spacing between hatch lines<\/strong> for precise pattern control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Adjust the percentage spacing between alternate hatch lines<\/strong> to set the ratio of long and short lines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Requires Two Boundary Lines:<\/strong>\n
\n
The embankment hatch is generated between two selected boundaries<\/strong>, which must be lines or polylines<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Supports Linear Geometry:<\/strong>\n
\n
The command works only on straight-line segments<\/strong> (not curved).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Additional Hatch Options:<\/strong>\n
\n
Double Hatch<\/strong> \u2013 Creates a denser hatch pattern<\/strong> for enhanced visualization.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Hatch in 3D<\/strong> \u2013 Generates hatch lines in 3D with elevation input<\/strong>, improving terrain annotation and slope analysis<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Benefits:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
This tool is essential for civil engineers, surveyors, and topographical drafters<\/strong>, providing a structured method for embankment slope representation<\/strong> in CAD drawings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
